Welcome!

The
Oregon Society of Clinical Hypnosis is a non-profit organization
dedicated to providing educational opportunities for qualified health
and mental health care professionals desiring to learn hypnosis. We are
a component section of The American Society of Clinical Hypnosis, ASCH,
the largest U.S. organization for health and mental health care
professionals using clinical hypnosis.

We have been involved in hypnosis training and education dating back to 1956 when the society originally began as the Portland Academy of Hypnosis.
From that time to the present, we have trained hundreds of licensed
health care professionals in how to use hypnosis safely and ethically
within their scope of practice.

Today,
OSCH offers presentations during the academic year, Basic and
Intermediate professional hypnosis training annually, advanced
workshops, and networking opportunities that can enhance both
professional and personal lives. Additionally, OSCH offers consultation
groups for members. For a current listing of OSCH offerings please see
our Education page. All OSCH training programs utilize current hypnosis research and information and are consistent with ASCH guidelines for continuing education and certification.

Please
explore our website for information about our presentations, training
and certification program, membership benefits and more. If you would
like to speak with a current OSCH Executive Board member about OSCH or request someone speak to your group on hypnosis please email info@oregonhypnosis.org
